I Manifested This Moment Ever Since Canada Qualified For T20 WC: Yuvraj Samra On Record Ton Against NZ
T20 World Cup: At just 19, Yuvraj Samra announced himself on the biggest stage with a breathtaking 110 to power Canada to 173/4 against New Zealand here at the M. A. Chidambaram Stadium on Monday.
Walking out for his very first T20 World Cup appearance, the teenager played with poise beyond his years, combining elegance with authority in a 58-ball century that rewrote record books. At 19 years and 141 days, he became the youngest batter to score a fifty in T20 World Cup history and went on to register the first hundred by a player from an Associate nation in the tournament. Moreover, his 110-run knock was the highest individual score for Associate teams in T20 World Cups.
Reflecting on the milestone innings, Samra, speaking to the broadcasters after the first innings, said, “Honestly, I manifested this moment ever since we qualified for the World Cup. Every single day, I dreamed about scoring a hundred on this stage. To do it here, in my first appearance, and as the youngest player in this World Cup - it’s truly a dream come true.”
